Transport & Vehicles in Coromandel East

How households get around — the vehicles they keep and the journey to work.

A total lack of car-free households defines Coromandel East, where every single home owns at least one motor vehicle. This stands in stark contrast to the wider state and nation, where about 7% of homes have no car. Reliance on private transport is the norm here, as public transport options are virtually non-existent.
